If respected and not misused too Ambien is a pretty safe, excellent sleep aid with subtle euphoric properties.(I am referring to therapeutic, normal dosages. I have had acid visuals on 140mg of Ambien, but that's complete ignorant behavior on my part. Fortunately, I haven't really had any major side effects from therapeutic dosages. One time I took like 100mg, and it hit me sideways. I ended up in a light coma for a day in intensive care with a catheter in me, waking up with the dreaded why am I here, what happened blackouts.If I take 10-20mg and smoke some dank I get slightly trippy visuals, and a decent euphoria from it. For me if I go too much past 30mg, I get more amnesic effects, but still feels good. I've blacked out hard from 30mg during the day. More room for side effects to occur if your not experienced.Snorting is fun, but sometimes it burns like hell, shorter duration and long term snorting Ambien will hurt your sinuses. This is my experience snorting Ambien. I now find I like it sublingually. If you don't snort all the time you'll be fine.
